Islamabad High Court today granted bail to former prime minister Imran Khan in the 190 million pounds corruption case. In this case, Khan and his wife are accused of receiving land worth billions of rupees as a bribe from a prominent real estate tycoon. A two-member bench of the Islamabad High Court had reserved the verdict yesterday after the completion of arguments.

The court today asked Khan to submit a surety bond of 10 Lakh rupees in order to secure bail. However, the order will not result in the ex-premier’s release from Adiala jail since his sentences in the Iddat and cypher cases are yet to be suspended.
